Chapter 339 - Birthday Banquet (1)

Zheng Yanan looked at Chen Meng’er, who was surrounded by the crowd and smiling so happily. The jealousy she had in her heart became more intense. Her hands, which were hanging by her sides, clenched tightly.

“Why? Why did Chen Meng’er appear in front of me?” Zheng Yanan’s eyes were red as she shouted in her heart. Zheng Yanan did not only shout out his dissatisfaction in his heart, but this time, his voice was especially intense.

It started when Chen Meng’er transferred to Zheng Yanan’s class when she was in fourth grade. The halo that surrounded her previously disappeared in an instant.

In the past, she was the prettiest in the class, dressed the best, and studied the best. She was the object of envy and flattery from her classmates. She was the good student that the teachers often talked about. However, after Chen Meng’er appeared, everyone would say Chen Meng’er’s name at the same time whenever they talked about who was the prettiest in the class.

No one paid attention to what she wore because the clothes on Chen Meng’er’s body would not be the same almost every day. Those clothes looked simple, but they looked especially good on Chen Meng’er. The girls in the class began to compete to imitate Chen Meng’er’s clothes.

After Chen Meng’er transferred to their class, she was no longer the first in their class. Her first place was replaced by Chen Meng’er. Every time, Chen Meng’er was the one who got full marks in the school exams. The teacher no longer praised her in front of the other students. Instead, she would talk about Chen Meng’er from time to time. What kind of young person had such good results? What kind of young genius? She had heard these words from the teacher of her class more than once.

Therefore, Zheng Yannan was the only person in this class who did not like Chen Meng’er. She picked on Chen Meng’er everywhere. When she found an opportunity, she would mock and ridicule Chen Meng’er. However, Chen Meng’er pretended not to hear this every time. This made Zheng Yannan hate Chen Meng’er even more in her heart.

After Zheng Yannan unintentionally learned that Chen Meng’er had transferred from the countryside, she was extremely happy in her heart. She wanted to see the faces of those classmates who knew that Chen Meng’er, whom they worshipped and tried to imitate, was a girl from the countryside.

The day after Zheng Yannan found out about the news, she went to class and spread the news. When the people in class heard that Chen Meng’er had come from the countryside, they first didn’t dare to believe it. Then, when they saw Chen Meng’er, they pointed and pointed at her. This made her very proud. Zheng Yannan even deliberately ran in front of Chen Meng’er and pointed at Chen Meng’er’s nose, calling her a “Country girl, country bumpkin.”

At that time, Chen Meng’er was not angry, but Chen Meng’er’s brother, Chen Haoxuan, stood out and wanted to beat her up. In the end, he was stopped by Chen Meng’er.

She was shocked. However, she thought that she had something on Chen Meng’er, so she came in front of Chen Meng’er and stabbed her.

Now, Zheng Yanan looked at Chen Meng’er who was wearing a princess dress. Chen Meng’er, who was held up like a princess by everyone. Zheng Yanan was filled with hatred in her heart. She thought, when she called Chen Meng’er a country girl again and again, was she laughing at her in her heart, laughing at her overestimation of herself? She felt that she was like a doll that was being played with by Chen Meng’er.

On Chen Meng’er’s side, because of Chen Meng’er as a mediator, Elder Liu and Marquis Yuwen didn’t get into a fight. Of course, the reason why the two of them quarreled on a daily basis was also because they had a good relationship. However, the older these two old men got, the more like children they became. When they quarreled, they didn’t even look at the occasion.

“You old fellows are here to attend Meng’er’s birthday banquet. Why didn’t you bring any gifts?” Elder Liu looked at the smug expressions on Marquis Yuwen and the others’ faces. He couldn’t help but provoke them again.
